January 2022
Robert K. Bolt has been making rods for more than 25 years with several hundred rods built. Robert is one of the very few rod makers on the west coast of the U.S. with a direct link to the discipline, heritage, and craftsmanship of the old masters, toiling daily with the equipment and tooling handed down through Winston to Gary H. Howells to Robert Bolt.
A lovely medium actioned rod with a firm backbone. One of Bolt's best tapers and a very good representation of his work.

'I make a prototype I think might work and then go from there making more prototypes until I have one that I think works. It's the "make 'em and break 'em" approach'
